Britain is an active participant in Israel’s genocide in Palestine, including through its arms trade and military collaboration with Israel. One example is Britain’s contribution to Israel’s F-35 fighter jets, used to drop 2,000lb bombs on the Gaza Strip.

The F-35 fighter jet programme is international, led by the United States. Research by Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT) has identified that crucial components for F-35 fighter jets used by Israel to bomb Gaza are manufactured at dozens of sites in Britain. At least 15% of the value of each of Israel’s F-35 fighter jet is produced in the UK.

Three regional protests are planned for June 17, in Havant, Rochester and Sheffield, at sites involved in the F-35 fighter jet supply chain and demand a comprehensive arms embargo on Israel NOW! Let’s make them big!

Brighton & Hove PSC are able to subsidise the cost of rail fares for members and supporters if needed (£10 per person). Find us on the concourse at Brighton station at 9.30am.
